Senior Trump admin. officials say White House run like Keystone Cops

In a blasting criticism, senior Trump administration officials reportedly told national security expert Steve Clemons that Trump and company are running the White House like the Keystone Cops.

Since an English friend asked, the Keystone Cops were a popular black and white silent movie from the 19-teens about a bunch of bumbling incompetent police who stumble all over themselves like idiots.

Clemons made the revelation on MSNBC tonight with Ari Melber hosting. You can see the video here.

This is interesting news, coming on the heels of the new from Reuters that Republican Senate Foreign Relations Chair, Senator Bob Corker, says “Trump should ‘immediately’ revise refugee executive order.”

Then add the news from London, that Downing Street let slip that Trump was holding hands with British Prime Minister Theresa May, during her visit to the White House a few days ago, because they were walking down a ramp and Trump is afraid of ramps! It’s an incredibly nasty thing for the British government to let leak. It makes Trump look weak, and also suggests that May had no interest in touching him. It’s one example of how everyone is turning on Trump.

This also brings to mind last week’s Washington Post reporting that spoke to some dozen White House officials who were all criticizing each other, and Trump himself. The very first weekend!

The man has only been president for 9 days, and it’s been such a disaster that rats are fleeing everywhere.

With the election of Donald Trump, AMERICAblog’s independent journalism and activism is more needed than ever.

“America first. Americans first”
And what defines an American? Glad you asked.
“We the People of the United States in order to form a more perfect union, establish Justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and Secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity…..”
I don’t see “me first” or “what’s in it for me” anywhere in that statement.
America is more than a transactional enterprise. It is more than debit and credit.
It is an aspiration. To secure blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity requires a proper regard for the rest of the world and the rights of humanity the world over. That is our greatest defense. Our greatest purpose. And perhaps our greatest asset as a people.
A “shining city on a hill”.

They don’t know what they are doing, their motives are suspect, and they believe they can act without any thought or restraint. America First? What does that even mean. This isn’t Survivor TV. America and Americans don’t benefit from cruelty to refugees who are fleeing persecution. Or shutting the door on people who come here to learn or work or simply to live in freedom. Or insulting our allies. Or betraying our most basic values. This is what I heard as a child and it still resonates today.

“Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans, born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage, and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world. Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty. ” JFK

It has never been said any better than that. And that is the American interest. It does not lie, it does not cheat, it does not steal, and it does not cruelly shut the door on those fleeing persecution.
